I was 19 miles SW of Bloomington and it was about an hour and a half to TH and Indy. The travel problem I have now is it's 12 hours to Lawrenceburg, TN instead of the more pleasant 4-1/2 hours from IN. I'm trying to decide which I prefer now; perpetual Summer or the colors of watching the seasons change. Tipping the scales in favor of the former, I'm finally back HOME!!! Fall was great up there, though....Ms. Norma over in Nashville, IN.

Actually, near Terre Haute in Center Point, there is a place called Exotic Feline Rescue Center founded and run by Joe Taft. Over 100 acres of large cats (tigers, lions, panthers, etc.) that were abandoned, abused, or whatever. EFRC provides a permanent home and medical care for them in a natural habitat. We have visited a few times and were always left in awe.

Interesting thing, a fiction writer by the name of Michael Koryta wrote and published a book last year called "The Ridge". In the book, Joe Taft is one of the characters.

Hi all! It's just been a lazy rainy morning here in Maine. Hubby and I are still in our jammies, and have been playing board games. I guess it's time to get dressed...

It is wonderful to be lazy when you get a chance and especially when it is raining or snowing. I usually just put on a robe on Sunday morning and read the news paper from cover to cover and then If I can take a Sunday afternoon nap. Life is good.
